There was a medical study done on it and my sons doctor actually recommended it. They actually put some fennel seed oil in different brands of gripe water..I think one of them was called like calm tummy or something. Anyways, it calmed him instantly and for the first time we were able to go out w/o him screaming the entire time. And he would cry for about 9 hrs every day..just cry, it was horrible! If you want a link to where I got mine send me a message! A little more expensive than gripe water but worked oh so much better!

kristin08 - 1112 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) It really didn't work for me. My baby is colicky and i've tried almost everything. Now i'm at the point where i'm just going to ride it out. i've heard that the gripe water does work so maybe u'll have some luck with it.

In fact, DH didn't believe me the first time, so I let him do it to her the second time. He said, "Wow. Let's never do *that* again!" On the bright side, the baby did stop fussing afterward.
